  ruby, clear colour; beautiful. nose: a lot of cherry aromas, tart notes; thick with good dosage of white pepper. taste: light bodied, medium acidity; again white pepper rules on the palate as well as on the nose; fruity - crisp cherries. 14% alc well hidden. Very good.

  The wine is clear and bright with a pale ruby colour and presence of legs. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium intensity aromas of raspberries, strawberries, white pepper and hints of generic blue flowers and vanilla. The wine is dry in the mouth with a medium(+) refreshing acidity. It has medium soft tannins and a medium(+) alcohol. It has a medium body and medium intensity flavours of raspberries, strawberries, white pepper and hints of generic blue flowers and vanilla. The finish is medium(+).
  
  It is a very good quality wine. It has a nice finish and a decent enough flavour concentration in good balance with the tannins, whilst the acidity balances well the alcohol. But it could be more complex in the nose. Can drink now, but it has just enough acidity and some flavour concentration to develop a bit more of complexity in the next 2-3 years.
